(HBO) - A citrus tree festival of Hoa Binh province and a fair featuring agricultural and "One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) products of the northern region will kick off in Hoa Binh province on November 1. Details on the two events, which are important trade promotion activities, were released at a press conference in Hanoi on October 15.
More than 40 media
agencies in Hanoi
attend the press conference.
At the press conference, a representative of the
Trade Promotion Centre for Agriculture (Agritrade) provided information on the
festival and fair.
Accordingly, the upcoming events aim to
popularise products of the OCOP Programme, high-quality agro-forestry-fishery
products of Vietnam,
along with citrus fruit specialties of Hoa Binh and other localities. They also
look to support the implementation of the OCOP Programme for 2018-2020, with a
vision to 2030, in northern localities.
The events are expected to create a chance for
provinces and cities to introduce their agricultural potential and strengths,
and promote trade and investment in this sector. They will also help
businesses, farms and production facilities in the northern region seek
opportunities for partnership with agro-forestry-fishery product purchasing and
processing enterprises nationwide.
Replying to reporters’ questions, an Agritrade
leader said with more than 250 booths, the festival and fair will be a
trustworthy bridge helping to market high-quality products to consumers. They
will also serve as venues for localities, businesses, research institutes and
cooperatives from across Vietnam
to introduce their scientific and technological achievements. Additionally,
companies, cooperatives and farmers can also learn experience and access the
latest technologies and equipment for agro-forestry-fishery production and
processing at the events.
Deputy Director of the Hoa Binh provincial
Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Vuong Dac Hung said to be
displayed at the festival and fair, all products have to pass strict
examination and have clear origin, so consumers can put their trust in them.
The events are also set to attract great attention thanks to such activities as
a conference introducing OCOP products to retail outlets in the northern
region, and a programme connecting farmers.
The Hoa Binh citrus tree festival and the
agricultural and OCOP product fair of the northern region are scheduled to take
place at the provincial convention and exhibition centre in Hoa Binh city from
November 1 to 5./.

After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
Muong Dong in Kim Boi district, one of the four major Muong regions in Hoa Binh province, is harnessing its revolutionary legacy and cultural heritage to drive socio-economic transformation.
